Jillian Rose Reed's bodacious curves are far from Cliche

I once championed the MTV scripted series, "Awkward.," before being turned off by a storyline with a character I couldn't stand. That character wasn't the awesome Tamara, as played by the spunky Jillian Rose Reed, who tended to have the best one-liners as the BFF of the lead female, played by Ashley Rickards. Reed isn't anything near what I would label a typical young adult actress, filling out her tights rather than showing off the bones in her ribcage as if they were designed by Moschino. So this photoshoot for Cliche, an online fashion magazine, is a real treat. In many ways the layout is similar in feel to all of those others, complete with bright colors and hip clothing, but the fact that the magazine didn't Photoshop the shit out of Jillian, instead showcasing her womanly body and striking beauty, is a bit of a revelation these days. With "Awkward." in its fifth season, the horizon might feature some different views for the actress, who has worked on "Weeds" and guested on shows like "Community" and The Middle," because Jillian has the talent and charm to be more than just an MTV footnote.
